Jade Palace

Large high rise hotel. Large breakfast, serving both Western and Asian breakfast items. Location near a KFC and McDonalds both serving a menu not served in Atlanta. Great health spots message parlors near where you can by a week of messages for about 20 bucks. Well worth it after a day of sight seeing. Grab a cab go anywhere Roast Duck Houses you don't want to miss. The hotel is rated 5 star but not the same constellations as the US and Europe. Yet the hotel is very traveler friendly clean, polite, nice bar. Would stay again, but the place doesn't have a hold on me would try other hotels if the price moved me.

The beds are like concrete and the entire hotel smells of smoke it has seeped deep into the walls. The service is average and the position not ideal for Beijing sightseeing. If you can stay somewhere else then make sure to do so. If you must stay, the Chinese restaurant downstairs is good and the beers are much cheaper there than in the hotel lobby.

The location is good. But the hotel is very badly managed. The facilities and food are of very low quality. Shower doors do not block water. If you are a non-smoker, you will be in hell. Rooms are filthy and smell very very bad bad.
